Just got back from the doctors. Part of the problem was my hips were way out of alignment. But he suspects the main problem it's at least one potential disk maybe two have slid out. So, I'm going to have to get an MRI. Was able to move a little better when I got there, but but much more. At least I wasn't screaming or crying. Also my left leg it's completely tingly numb. Don't know if that is just because I'm not laying down, or other.
I understand you and your pain so well. I have same problem. I live with it for almost 6 years or something. Can you imagine? Things that I have to do to get better-exercise... swim... and get some massages. If I don't do it-then surgery (no, thanks). I used to have nights when I was in real pain. It also went from my back to my legs. I remember-I was really scared and promised myself that I will do anything (yeah, right) to not let it happen again.
I have a 'special' pillow (which I don't use) and ->special matrace (I don't use it. lol)-> but for some people its like Heaven to sleep on it. Idk what does it-but it kinda helps for people with back problems.
If you have some questions-write me.
I will pray for you.
